Art Nouveau Cornice

Art Nouveau was an artistic style that peaked from 1890 to 1905. It is characterised by extensive use of floral motifs and sought to bring art into all areas of life. So Art Nouveau designers were architects, interior decorators, artists, sculptures and furniture designers.

The cornices below were created during the Art Nouveau era and show elements of the under lying concepts of that design school.
